Things have been going positively for me the past few days. My health continues to be better and my energy level is going up. I just want to say thank you to Judith Karman Hospice for allowing me to borrow a wheelchair and letting me use it for as long as I need it. Moving around is alot easier and I am not so tired anymore. It was definitely a wonderful surprise and has come to be very useful for me.
On Saturday, there was a Mexican Benefit dinner to raise money for my transplant. Thank you to Miriam for cooking the wonderful meal. I have never tasted such a delicacy before. I wasn't much of fan of mexican food, but after the dinner I was convinced that enchiladas are the best thing ever. Not only were there chicken enchiladas there were also a vegetarian dish as well. I was very happy and humbled that so many people showed up to make the event so sucessfull. About $1300 were raised that night. I feel so lucky and blessed with how the fundraising is going. A hundred thousand dollars seems impossible about two months ago, but with the help of so many kind people I am very close to my goal!
I twisted my ankle after the dinner when I fell outside in the rain because I was a klutz. If it werent for the help of Haerani (a wonderful woman!) my ankle would probably be swollen. It still swell up the next day but I know it would have been worst if if werent for her help with the ankle.
I will see Dr P tomorrow. Hopefully things will go the way its supposed to tomorrow.
I guess thats all for now, I do hope that everyone is enjoying the olympics, I know I am! :)

Dear Rina, I am so glad that everything is getting better. I miss seeing you jogging around Boomer lake, while your mom and I walk like turtles. Get well soon and we can go to Penang Restaurant in Dallas for bubur ayam.
love,
haerani
